Police appeal for help to find missing man Lee Harris who may have travelled to the New Forest from Portsmouth

POLICE are seeking the public’s help to trace a missing man who may have travelled to the New Forest from Portsmouth.

The appeal has been launched three days after Lee Harris (38) was last seen at an address in the city at 1.20pm on Sunday.

It’s believed he has travelled out of Portsmouth and could be in the Southampton or New Forest area, or could have travelled further afield.

Lee is described as white, 5ft 8ins tall, with brown eyes and a thick grey beard.

He was last seen wearing blue jeans, a white T-shirt and black trainers. He was wearing an orange fleece but may also have had a grey fleece with him. He has a sleeve tattoo on his arm.

A Hampshire police spokesperson said today (Wednesday): “He was reported missing yesterday and since then we have been carrying out a number of enquiries to trace him.

“We are now turning to the community for help. If you think you’ve seen him since he went missing, or think you might know where he is, please contact us immediately.”

Call 101, quoting reference 44240368234. In an emergency dial 999.

*UPDATE: The image of Lee Harris has been removed after police confirmed he had been found.
